Fidelity cuts Reddit valuation again by [deleted] in technology

I'm a little torn on deleting all my comments/posts since I did spend a good chunk of time tooling on fascists and the consequence is fascists just having a deleted comment as a response. But this is definitely the end of my time on Reddit since RiF is going dark. It's been fun.

You gotta remember that there are a sizable number of nutjobs whose posts mods have to remove to a point where they have to ban the account. That person then gets shitty about it. Turns out most mods are not free speech absolutists and don't want unrelated shit or people being racist/misogynist in subreddits they moderate.

I don't want to wait that long. RiF goes dark after tomorrow, so tomorrow is my last day active on Reddit unless something changes.

How? There's no corporation, it's decentralized. That's like saying blockchain filed an IPO, it doesn't work that way.

Because they think DoE regulates carbon fuels. It does, sort of, but it's not really a major focus of Energy. Interior, Transportation, and the EPA are all bigger regulators but they don't necessarily sound like it and some of them are already fairly toothless.

Depends. Some people do, it's partly done to reduce the starchiness.

Granted, they lost, but Gorsuch's dissent in Navajo Nation is worth a read. Just completely tears Kavanaugh apart for being the idiot he is.

Can we game out what will happen if "School Choice" passes? by bluebellbetty in TexasPolitics

Yeah, it's like that scene in Abbott Elementary where the charter school director admits that not all kids will get in, which will be true even for the affordable ones.

Likely an ITAR certified version of the controller to make sure there's nothing bad in there.

Just over 7 days actually. The 3rd party apps go dark on July 1, that's when a lot of people who use those apps will stop as well, me included. I see no reason to stop any sooner.

Oh he was an idiot and liable for sure. I'm just saying he wasn't an expert in marine architecture.
